EDTH x IKT Electronics – Scaling Hardware: From Series A to Reliable Mass Production
Scaling hardware after Series A is where many startups get stuck or fail. Moving from a working prototype to stable, compliant, and cost-controlled mass production requires much more than good engineering.
In this webinar, IKT Electronics, a European full-cycle EMS partner with over 20 years of manufacturing experience, will break down what founders and hardware teams actually need to know when transitioning from MVP to reliable large-scale production.
With a Bulgaria-based manufacturing hub, IKT supports complex multilayer and HDI PCB assembly, full inspection and testing (AOI, X-ray, Flying Probe), conformal coating, and IPC Class 3 / 3A compliance — helping startups build realistic supply chains, mitigate component risks, and keep unit economics under control as they scale.
This session is practical, honest, and grounded in real production cases — designed to help you avoid costly mistakes and manufacturing firefighting, so you can focus on product development and sales.
